The Yreka High girls tennis team opened the season on Tuesday with a home game against league opponent Anderson. The Lady Miners lost the contest by the score of 5-4. Head coach Steve Pyles commended his team for the way they played against a squad he feels will be a top contender for the league title this year. A highlight occurred in No. 1 singles, as Christen Crawford held on for a three set super tie breaker win. Emily Longworth won in two sets in No. 5 singles and won in No. 3 doubles along with Jessica Seal. In No. 6 singles Megan Almanza earned a two-set victory for Yreka. The Lady Miners next play on Thursday at Corning.
